Leon 1P Vag-Com Cable ** Canbus OBD Diagnostics**

[Nath.]

Nath if I'm not mistaken they should be backward compatible....

It should work no problem Nath - just use whatever version of VAG-COM you're running for the Leon

Thanks guys, a friend of mine wants alarm chirp and total closure enabled on his Sharan. I think I will have a go and see what I can do for him.

When i took my Leon to SEAT the other week to get valued, the salesman asked if it was a non standard alarm. I just told him a different garage activated the beeps, so he didnt think i had been messing with it.


And for anyone who is interested, i still have my cable for sale.

Interested on your cable. Tried send you PM but seemed you are running out of the quota there...
Contact me as you will.

I can't connect to 46 too.
My car is a Leon FL 2010 1.8TSI DSG and my version is 908.

After a little digging there is no Module 46 on the Facelift Leon it's under Module 9 Central Electrics.

However still no further forward as I haven't got a clue what each of the Bytes are under Module 9 as the Long Coding Helper says it has no data for my ECU.

I'll get there but it might take a little time

the label files havent been updated yet, have you tried the latest version of software?

Yes I tried a copy of 908 and it didn't work with the cable

vag.com troubles

hey guys,

Got my cheapo cable from aforementioned website, and had a go this evening.

Using versions 7041 and 0823, I can scan and read fault codes (after disabling wireless connection and changing date), but I cant clear the faults or edit any settings, it comes saying 'needs a licensed verion of this software'.

Anybody have any clues???

[AndrewJB]

i would remove you VIN from that log BTW mate looks like youve got a few faults on their aswell

 

[st@rgixxer]

edited. Yeah, I dont have a clue what they mean and as I cant clear them, I dont know if theyre current or old.

 

[AndrewJB]

you can go into each module that shows an error and clear them individually! then it will scan that module again if it comes back up it means its current

 

[st@rgixxer]

It doesnt let me clear them, just comes up with the warning that its not a licensed copy.

Also doesnt show the balloon with the list of options to edit settings.

Am I being stupid???

Check post 366/367 on previous page - cable may not be in fully.

Hope this helps

Well I ended up sending back my cable I bought As I couldn't get it to work. After messing around I managed to get a new 908 cable and software delivered from a chap in the uk for 42.50 and this works a treat. Now have all the labels and can do everything now. So if people are having a problem with the 704 cable i suggest you upgrade to a 908 one

 

[Toxic]

Also noticed you can turn off the "Cold Diagnostics" on each light unit. Meaning LED's etc hopefully wouldnt flag up as bulb out warnings.

where exactly is the setting for this Ross?

 

[AndrewJB]

Anybody know what Channel it is to test boost pressure?

i was told 115 so i go onto my 811.2 BETA VCDS and 115 has got voltage or something on it

and i carnt find a Boost Actual and Boost Specified Anywhere

 

[ross27]

I did post it on here somewhere, not long after i wrote that post. I will try to find it.

And ive still got one of these cables for sale if someone is interested. No longer have my Leon!

 

[Nath.]

As said,

09 Cent Elec

Byte 2
Bit 2

Byte 18
Bit 0-7

Byte 19
Bit 0-2

Then you can fit normal LED's anywhere on the car with no errors.

The cable arrived yesterday and after a good play about with it it works perfectly, make sure your wireless is turned off while your plugged in and away it goes with the supplied VCDS version 805, wicked bit of kit for £25 can't fault it!!

 

[campbell_p30]

For the struts:

Go to:
www..strutsdirect.co.uk/components/fixed-force-gas-struts-sd02-range.php?products_id=1080


[0] Gas Strut Type: Fixed Force Gas Strut - F-SD02-200
[1] Force N (Newtons): **Between 500-550NM**
[2] Rod End Fitting: Steel Ball - SBJ7
[3] Tube End Fitting: Steel Ball - SBJ7
[4] Rod End Bracket: Not requiered
[5] Tube End Bracket: Not requiered.

Total should be £35.72, £6.96 P+P, £7.47 VAT = £50.14

The combination of the strut length along with the end fittings, makes the struts prefect size for size of our standard ones.


I suggest people wait and see how i get on with the 520NM struts, hopefully they will be ok.

Ross27 - How did you get on with the 520NM struts? I'm still looking to do this mod.

 

[ross27]

They were perfect for the two days i used them. I sold my car and sold the struts to a guy in Denmark i think it was MadsenTDI. So you may be best to ask him how he got on with them.
